    Last Sunday on Valentines Day I took the g/f and another young lady to a Wild game. It was against their rival the Vancouver Canucks. What a game It was!! Some say this Venue (Excel Energy Center) Is the best of the best. Here's a few pics I took from the 20th row behind the Wild bench. My camera Isn't nothing special, It shows by the quality of the pics. I will be Investing In a high quality camera before I make my trip out to Colorado In September.

    A tribute to the 1960 USA Olympic Hockey team. There was 5 Minnesotan's on the Olympic team. 4 of them were honored here.

    Didn't take long for the fights to start. No surprise there. James Sheppard of the Mn Wild held his ground real good.

    The scoring finally started with 7 minutes to go In the 1st period and the Wild didn't let up after that.

    About time! This is almost, like, totally three days late! lol

    Yes, Boogard is a monster... I read, or heard somewhere that he, and his brother, have a camp for players, to learn how to fight... Anyone know about this? lol. Doesn't suprise me.

    Nice pics, and verrrrry nice seats!!! Not that you could really get "Bad" seats in Xcel...

    Boogard is a beast.

    Great game for sure, probably better in person, eh?
